Dan Le Batard 0:00
You are listening to the Dan Levitar Show in partnership with the DraftKings Sports app. Now live in all 50 states.
Mike Ryan 0:12
Happy 31st birthday to Harrison Butker. Patriot. Happy birthday to him. I don't care. Good luck. He's a chief. Should be a patriot.
Chris Cote 0:26
Amin Elhassan has been found. I don't know where he was. I've got a number of different questions for him. The first is, where were you yesterday?
Amin Elhassan 0:35
Yesterday I was in Las Vegas. Today I'm back home in Phoenix.
Chris Cote 0:38
And did you tell anybody that? Like, we were expecting you yesterday, and then you weren't here yesterday. Is there any particular reason that you didn't tell anybody that?
Amin Elhassan 0:48
Because I didn't tell myself that I wouldn't be there yesterday.
Mike Ryan 0:53
Accountability. We like that around here. Thank you, Amin.
Chris Cote 0:56
That was accountability? Okay.
Mike Ryan 0:58
Yeah, seems like Vegas happens sometimes. That's a hand up. Vegas went off me, coach.
Amin Elhassan 1:03
I did an accountability right there.
Chris Cote 1:05
Yesterday would have been a good day to answer the question about Tyler Hero and Bam Adebayo and whatever your unique thoughts are as our Metal Ark NBA insider. Have you heard anything, found anything out in the last 24 hours? that is interesting there. I should say Ramona Shelburne has reported that Hero, this is the backstory according to sources with knowledge of the encounter, and I ask, I know Mike's got some reporting on this as well, Adebayo confronted Hero about comments the guard had made critiquing the center on social media.

Where does Amin say he was and why did he miss yesterday's show?

Chris Cote 1:35
Hero responded verbally in a way that Adebayo took exception to. Bless you, Zaslow. and the encounter became physical. Sources with knowledge of the encounter told ESPN that Adebayo struck Hiro near his chin, although descriptions of the nature of the physical contact is in some dispute. Hiro did not get knocked to the ground, according to sources with knowledge of the interaction, who added that he was restrained by others in the gym from responding physically. What do you know here, Amin?
Amin Elhassan 2:01
I don't know anything. We're all bartering off of Even Ramona and all the other great reporters are reporting. They're reporting what people have told them. We don't know what's happened. I have to imagine, as Zach Harper pointed out, this happened in a casino around teenage kids. Somebody got it on camera. There's no way in 2026, a bunch of kids with phones and in a casino somehow that that's not captured. So we'll find out exactly what the nature of the physical contact was. But I think we can all surmise that it was about the DMs that were leaked. Tyler Hero talking about BAM in a disparaging manner.
Steve Dangle 2:42
I mean, are you surprised that the NBA hasn't even put out a statement? Are they going to do anything?
Amin Elhassan 2:46
There's no jurisdiction. This did not happen on NBA time. It did not happen at an NBA venue. It was in the offseason. There's been no legal recourse. There's no pressing of charges or anything. This is none of their business, to be quite frank. I still hear the hangover in your voice. Never had a hangover in my life, Dan, so you don't hear that. You hear my voice. I lost my voice. That's because my kid was playing an AU tournament. I was screaming all weekend long, but I don't get hangovers.
Chris Cote 3:13
Let me play for a mean some sound from Byron Scott on the LeBron James situation, which I imagine will rectify itself here in the next couple of days.

What new details surfaced about the Tyler Herro–Bam Adebayo gym altercation?

Chris Cote 3:22
LeBron James is said to be in the consideration stage. He has all of the information. Here's Byron Scott on the podcast I thought was fake, Byron Scott's Fast Break.
Unknown 3:31
Ten years ago, yes, every team was calling to get LeBron James on their team. That was ten years ago. Now Rich Paul and company, they're making all the calls to see who's interested in having LeBron on their team. Again, guys, we've got to understand that the guy's 41 years old. Been in the league 21, 22, 23 years. Incredible career. Unbelievable career. Still playing at a high level. Yes, sir. Nobody's saying that he can't play another year or two in this league. But as far as teams that are looking at him right now, the teams are also saying, all right, we're going to take him for one year, maybe two.
